Struggling to eliminate waste

WADE PATERSON STAFF REPORTER

D

avid Perron hasn’t eaten many meals on his deck since he retired to West Kelowna three years ago.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to. The back of his Canyon Ridge home provides him with a breathtaking view of Okanagan Lake.

But a glass of wine is tough to enjoy while sniffing odours from the Westside Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant, which he says blows toward his house more days than not.

YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE LIVING HERE.

And, as far as the District of West Kelowna is concerned, the foul odour isn’t the only problem that stinks.

The plant currently trucks its biosolids more than 300 km northwest to Clinton, at a cost of about $1,500 per trip.

While the Regional District of the Central Okanagan attempts to come up with a better solution, it has increased the plant’s 2014 budget by $300,000.

It’s one of the reasons why West Kelowna residents will notice a substantial increase when they look over their next utility bill.

See story on page A3

WADE PATERSON/CAPITAL NEWS

DAVID PERRON says odours from the Westside Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant have prevented him from enjoying his deck during the three years he has lived in his Canyon Ridge home.

CLOSE-UP

Mayor critical of ‘little longer-term planning’ From A1 West Kelowna Mayor Doug Findlater describes the ongoing issue of where to dump the Westside Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant’s biosolids as “a long and sad story with little long-term planning.”

“One of the things I’ve been fairly critical about is that, while the plant works, it seems to operate from dayto-day until there’s a crisis,” says Findlater.

Biosolids—a gentle term for sewage sludge—from the treatment plant were buried at the Westside Sanitary Landfill prior to its closure in July 2010.

In the five months that followed, the treatment plant took biosolids to the Glenmore landfill through an agreement with the City of Kelowna and B.C. Ministry of Environment.

Once that disposal option was exhausted, the Regional District of the Central Okanagan entered into a twoyear biosolids management plan with SYLVIS Environmental. Biosolids were then taken up the Okanagan Connector, to Pennask and Bob’s Lake Pits as part of a short-term reclamation project.

“During that time, we began exploring other opportunities for land application,” says Bruce Smith, communications officer for the regional district.

The regional district then proposed spreading the biosolids in a Westbank First Nation Community Forest; however, WFN eventually rejected that plan.

Scrambling to find an alternate location to take the plant’s sludge, the regional district identified a possible reclamation project at Brenda Mines.

WESTSIDE Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant currently transports its sewage sludge 300 km northwest to Clinton, at a cost of $1,500 per trip.

Peachland agreed to that plan under three conditions; one of which was to first get approval from Interior Health Authority.

“Interior Health advised that, out of a concern that the materials could make their way into the nearby water course during a possible heavy rainfall event, they recommended that we not proceed,” says Smith.

The treatment plant began transporting the biosolids to Clinton last October—at an estimated cost of

$1,500 per trip.

The increased hauling distance is now hitting the pocketbooks of West Kelowna, Peachland and Westbank First Nation residents who the treatment plant services.

A total of $300,000, plus a 14.2 per cent administration overhead charge, was added to the 2014 budget to offset the cost of transporting the sludge to Clinton.

The regional district will also charge West Kelowna an additional

$494,265 this year, based on adjustment to the sewer flow calculation for the community.

Those charges will result in a rate increase of 22.92 per cent—$49.24 annually—per West Kelowna household.

According to the district, incentive funds provided from Multi-Material British Columbia for communities that participate in recycling programs will be used to help reduce the cost of recycling to residents; there-

fore, the net annual utility bill increase will drop to $30.80.

Peter Rotheisler, manager of environmental services with the regional district, acknowledges disposing the biosolids in Clinton is Plan B. And with the current contract with SYLVIS Environmental set to end in September, the clock is ticking to figure out a Plan A. “In the meantime…we have a request for expression of interest out right now to gauge the interest in managing our biosolids,” says Rotheisler.

“From that we will develop an RFP (request for proposals) and see what solutions come forward.”

The request for expression of interest closes July 3 and Rotheisler says the regional district has received several inquiries.

“We have had a lot of different companies we didn’t even expect to inquire about it, so it should be interesting.

“The key is finding the option that is cost effective and limits impacts on the environment.”

Stakeholders have also encouraged the regional district to develop a master plan for the treatment plant, which looks at all aspects including odour, transport and future expansion.

“It will be a very comprehensive document,” says Rotheisler.

“It’s not going to provide all the answers by any means, but it will really provide a framework in terms of some of the key areas that we need to look at on an ongoing basis.”

But that master plan is in the ear-

Change of trial venue denied Conviction for income tax evasion for accused Bacon killers Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER

The men charged with murdering Lower Mainland gangster Jonathan Bacon outside the Delta Grand Hotel in 2011 will be tried in Kelowna.

Lawyers representing Jujhar KhunKhun, 26, Jason Thomas McBride, 37, and Michael Hunter Jones, 30, applied to have the trial moved out of the Okanagan city, but that was denied Thursday. The details surrounding the hearing are subject to a publication ban.

Bacon was shot dead in Kelowna Aug. 14, 2011, outside the Delta Grand Hotel.

Hells Angel Larry Amero and Independent Soldier James Riach were

also believed to be in the car with Bacon.

Amero is now in jail in Montreal after being arrested there for trafficking, following a major undercover drug investigation. Riach is in police custody in the Philippines following his arrest for allegedly taking part in a drug trafficking ring.

Another passenger was Leah Hadden-Watts, who had her spinal column severed by a bullet. She now has paralysis in both her legs, most of her upper torso and partial paralysis of both arms and hands.

Hadden Watts has filed a civil suit against the trio facing criminal charges, as well as the companies that operate the Delta Grand hotel and the casino beside it along Okanagan Lake.

West Kelowna businessman Bruce Roch Perrin was sentenced on June 25 in Kelowna Provincial Court for two counts of income tax evasion.

Perrin pleaded guilty to one count of income tax evasion and one count of excise tax evasion.

He was sentenced to nine months’ probation and was fined $28,922, representing 75 per cent of both income tax evaded and Goods and Services Tax (GST) he failed to remit. He was given 24 months to pay the fine.

According to court records, a Canada Revenue

Agency investigation determined that Perrin, doing business as The Bug Man, failed to report income of $163,378 for the 2007 and 2008 taxation years.

The investigation further determined that despite reporting net income of only $10,067 and no net income in 2007 and 2008 respectively, Perrin was able to enjoy a cruise, a trip to Mexico, and several fishing excursions off the west coast of Vancouver Island.

By providing incomplete books and records to both his bookkeeper and

accountant, Perrin evaded $29,535 in federal income tax and $9,028 in Goods and Services Tax. When taxpayers are convicted of income tax evasion, they must still repay the full amount of taxes owing, plus interest and any civil penalties that may be assessed by the CRA. In addition, the court may fine them up to 200 per cent of the taxes evaded and impose a jail term of up to five years.

If you have ever made a tax mistake or omission, the CRA offers a second chance to make things

right through its Voluntary Disclosures Program (VDP).

If you make a valid disclosure before you become aware that the CRA is taking action against you, you may only have to pay the taxes owing plus interest.

More information on the VDP can be found on the CRA’s website at cra. gc.ca/voluntarydisclosures.

Further information on tax code convictions can also be found in the media room on the CRA website, cra.gc.ca/convictions.

CLOSE-UP

Odour monitoring can be expensive endeavour Waste from A3 ly stages, and it could be some time before it is complete. *** Before David Perron purchased his retirement home in West Kelowna’s Canyon Ridge community three years ago, he was told he might notice a smell for a couple of days every month until the treatment plant’s phase three upgrades were completed in November 2012.

The builder assured him the problem would go away after that.

But Perron says the facility upgrade hasn’t fixed the problem.

Perron and other residents have been recording when they notice foul odours since 2012.

In April 2014, Perron noticed a bad smell on 15 separate days.

“We spent a lot of money on this place,” says Perron.

“Now we have a house that we can use the inside of, and (a house) we can use the outside of, depending on which way the wind is blowing.”

But according to the regional district, Perron is only one of four individuals to submit an odour complaint in 2014.

“It’s primarily one person who has been complaining, frequently,” says Smith.

“That person is well aware of what is being done and how we’re addressing it.”

But Perron says more people share his concerns than the number of official complaints may represent.

For example, he led an information session for Canyon Ridge residents last Monday evening.

About 40 people attended that meeting.

He says he’s also heard from residents on

Whitworth Road: An affluent street where three of the Okanagan’s 30 most expensive houses— each worth more than $4.8 million—are located.

A comment from Perron’s logbook, submitted by a Whitworth Road resident April 25, 2013, reads: “Yesterday evening was a putrid situation as sewage odours were entering our residence. The previous two evenings were unpleasant as well.”

The treatment plant has enlisted the skills of a PhD student from UBCO to begin an odour-monitoring program in key receptor areas around the plant. The first round of data should be collected in the next couple of weeks.

Perron argues those readings are far less accurate than a system such as OdoWatch, which is currently used by the regional compost facility

Berezan Liquor Stores

A GROUP of local officials toured the Westside Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant in 2012. near Predator Ridge.

But that type of expenditure is tough to justify when there are so few residents complaining, says Rotheisler.

“Odour monitoring is an extremely expensive undertaking.

“We’re committed to monitoring odour and making improvements, but we also need to bring forward a reasonable ap-

proach to doing so, that takes into account all of the different people who are financial contributors.” *** Perron is convinced many of the treatment plant’s problems would be solved if it was run by the District of West Kelowna.

And Mayor Doug Findlater agrees.

“I wish we had more influence and more control over what goes on with that plant…but we don’t,” says Findlater.

A May 2010 report, provided to the district by Neilson-Welch consultants, suggests the district consider a municipal service option, which would

give West Kelowna governing authority over the treatment plant.

But Findlater says that option hasn’t been well-received by other stakeholders.

“In an ideal world, we feel we would operate it and do it better, but we have partners in that plant.

“Such a change, without their agreement, would be very difficult— and they’re not inclined to agree.

“So we try to create change from within a stakeholder committee.” wpaterson @kelownacapnews.com Twitter: @PatersonWade

Contract signed to build health services building Urban Solutions Group has been awarded the contract to design, build and lease the new Kelowna Community Health and Services Centre in downtown Kelowna.

“Currently, patients may need to travel to multiple locations to get the care they need,” said Premier Christy Clark, MLA for Westside-Kelowna.

“Having health services in one location at the new Kelowna Community Health and Services Centre will be much more convenient.”

Located at the corner of Doyle Avenue and Ellis Street, the Community Health and Services Centre will allow Interior Health to bring together services and staff who are currently housed in leased space in various areas of Kelowna.

“The building itself will be five storeys and house approximately 800 staff who will offer a wide

variety of health-care services to support local patients,” added local MLA Norm Letnick.

Interior Health will not own the building, set to open in summer 2016.

Rather, Interior Health will have input into the design by the private sector of a building that best suits the needs of Interior Health’s clients and em-

The City of Kelowna has partnered on the project by initially selling the land to Interior Health, and agreeing to construct parking to support the project.

In addition, the new Ellis Street Parkade will be completed in conjunction with the opening of the Community Health and Services Centre.

Platelet Rich Plasma and Stem Cells Regenerative treatments are a hot topic in healthcare today. They give you the ability to actually heal an injured shoulder, knee, or hip – rather than just mask the pain with drugs.

For injured people of all ages regenerative treatments will give them back their lives.

Too many people are limping through life, no longer able to play sports like golf or baseball because of old injuries that refuse to heal.

Painful joints and muscles rob you of the joy of life and they shrink your world by forcing you to do less.

Pain killers are not a long term solution for

joint pain. They may work for a while but they will only mask the pain and they will not actually heal your injuries. And, many pain killing drugs increase your risk of damaging your liver and kidneys.

injury to re grow damaged ligaments, tendons, and even muscles. Of course we all have dormant stem cells throughout our bodies, but injecting extra stem cells into an area of injury is an effective treatment.

The best way to solve joint pain and get back to an active life is to regenerate your injured ligaments and tendons. Regenerative medicine offers people in pain real hope of recovering their lives. The ultimate regenerative medical treatment is stem cells. Stem cell treatments start with extracting your own stem cells from your adipose tissue or bone marrow. Your own stem cells are then injected back into areas of

The main drawback to getting stem cell treatments is the cost. A single treatment may run as high as $40,000 depending on what area is being treated. A more viable treatment option for many people is Platelet Rich Plasma, also known as PRP.

Award for Financial Reporting

Council received the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) Award for Financial Reporting for the City of Kelowna’s 2012 Annual Report. Since 2002, the City of Kelowna has received the Canadian Award for Excellence in Financial Reporting for preparing comprehensive annual financial reports that evidence the spirit of transparency and full disclosure.

our Rutland update

Council received an update and endorsed the final project selection for the Our Rutland project. Through community engagement, it was determined that $110,000 will be used to facilitate a public market space through capital improvements to Roxby Park. The Rutland Parks Society will facilitate the operations and coordination of market activities.

Pandosy Waterfront update

Council received an update on the financial implications and timing of implementation for Refined Option 1, a design for Pandosy Waterfront generated by charrette participants. Staff were directed to bring forward zoning and Official Community Plan amendments for City-owned properties in the area, with the caveat that the Meikle Road property not be sold unless there were plans to consolidate it with the other adjacent properties for development.

Platelets are normally found in your blood and they are well known to control clotting

and bleeding. Platelets also contain growth factors that activate dormant stem cells. A PRP injection treatment starts with drawing a small amount of your blood. Next, the blood is spun in a special centrifuge to separate the red blood cells. The remaining platelets and yellow fluid is called Platelet Rich Plasma.

The PRP is then injected into injured joints to activate stem cells and regenerate your body.

Telling your story most accurately —the Capital News

Canada’s willingness to fund farm research may need to shift as breadbaskets like the Okanagan face water shortages and climbing temperatures in years to come.

Those attending the second lecture to mark this year’s 100th anniversary of the Pacific AgriFood Research Station heard money is scarce around the federal facility these days, just as water may be when critical ice fields dry up.

“The water in the Okanagan is snowpack, so if things change, water supply could change,” said Gerry Neilsen, a soil fertility and plant nutritionist who spoke on the future of agriculture and agricultural research in the area.

New pests might arrive with a warmer climate, as evidenced by the

mountain pine beetle episode, and crop selections are likely to change. In fact, it’s already possible to grow olives, persimmons and kiwis here, it has warmed so much.

“There are opportunities with climate change.

They’re not necessarily things we want to think about, but those are the realities we’re going to have to discuss,” said Norm Looney, who highlighted the accomplishments of the station.

Pacific Agri-Food scientists developed a wide swath of fruits and technologies to make both the tree fruit and wine industries key economic drivers in the Okanagan. From opalescent apple juice to fruit leather, drip irrigation to advances in understanding how elements like calcium factor into plant growth, the work of the scientific team has been virtually as critical as

Times are nonetheless tough for the scientists, as it stands, as the type of long-term, science-forscience-sake research that’s cultivated agriculture in the valley is slowly being eroded.

“Canada and the United States and Western Europe are all kind of together in this model of putting agriculture down and it’s because it’s not a problem. Food shortages are not a major issue compared to other areas where the government could be spending money,” said

Looney.

Currently faced with short-term funding commitments like the fiveyear Growing Forward grants, not to mention a whittling of researchers to half the scientists the station had in its heyday, the associate director of research, development and technology, Kenna MacKenzie said researchers are adjusting to a new reality.

The relationship the research station forged with industry is extremely strong, she noted, but the shift in priorities for public funds is now putting the dollars straight into in-

dustry-driven initiatives first.

“The Growing Forward program has put more money into agricultural research but it’s not going here; it’s going elsewhere, like the universities,” she said.

Both she and Neilsen noted the young people universities attract bring the enthusiasm science desperately needs to evolve, but at a sacrifice to the long-term funding of projects.

A university, Neilsen pointed out, is focused more on training people into positions and this comes at a cost to continuity as the masters and doctorate students pursuing a given research topic step away upon graduation.

Looney noted many of the station’s most successful projects were an evolution that took 30 or 40 years, with sporadic achievements along the way.

“It seems that the more developed a culture is, the less agriculture seems to get the attention it deserves,” he said.

This is in stark contrast to China, Japan and even France, where agricultural research is given top priority, he said.

With both farmers and researchers aging, the researchers concluded that Canada may very well face great difficulty keeping the stream of achievements rolling in years to come, and it could cost farmers and consumers. jsmith @kelownacapnews.com

Businessman ready to run in West Kelowna civic election Alistair Waters ASSISTANT EDITOR

Rusty Ensign is taking another shot at municipal politics.

The well-known West Kelowna businessman, who ran unsuccessfully for the job of first mayor for the fledgling municipality in 2007, and then again unsuccessfully three years ago for a councillor position, announced Thursday he will seek a seat on council once again.

Ensign also unsuccessfully sought the federal Conservative nomination to succeed former Okanagan-Coquihalla MP Stockwell Day in 2011.

In making his announcement, Ensign became the first non-incumbent to publicly say he is running. “A wise politician once told me you can always enter a race too late but its never to early to announce,” said Ensign, when asked about his timing.

Typically, council candidates wait until late summer or early fall to announce they are running.

However, in Kelowna in recent weeks, a mayoral candidate and a councillor candidate have both announced election bids for this November’s civic election.

Ensign said he learned from his last two council campaigns, where he felt he entered both races too late and it cost him.

Three years ago in the civic election, Ensign finished seventh in a 13-person race for the six available councillor seats.

“I was the first runner-up and I was short just 625 votes,” he said. “I’m going to make sure I get 650 more this time.”

Born and raised in West Kelowna, Ensign broke his neck playing rugby in 1983 and is a quadriplegic, confined to a wheelchair.

But he has not let his physical condition get in the way of an extensive community-service background.

He said running his trucking and gravel business has given him valuable business experience and sitting on the board of the former Lakeview Irrigation District helped teach him about administration.

He said he has also been to every district budget meeting open to

In fact, he said West Kelowna has done better since it incorporated than the committee that studied different governance models prior to the incor-

poration vote predicted it would by this time.

An active volunteer in the community, Ensign is also a former president of the Westbank District Chamber of Commerce (as it was then known).

He said his experience on numerous boards and

with local organizations will help him at the council table.

“I don’t want to be a critic of council, I want to complement it,” he said when asked about his feelings towards the job the existing council is doing.

But he said he enters the campaign with five major priorities he wants to see addressed—road maintenance and snow removal, illegal dumping and cleaning, sidewalks, professional development planning and providing more opportunities for youth in the district.

When asked about West Kelowna’s plans to build a new municipal hall two blocks north of the Westbank town centre on Elliott Road, Ensign said he likes the idea of a new hall but feels it’s being proposed in the wrong location.

He wants to see it built right in the middle of the town centre, between the two stretches of the Highway 97 couplet, on land between Elliott and Brown Roads.

He said there is land there as the municipality already owns the former

Regional BoaRd HigHligHts – JUne 2014 Regional growth strategy Bylaw adopted The Regional Board has adopted the new Regional Growth Strategy Bylaw No. 1336. The bylaw updates and addresses changes that have occurred across the Central Okanagan since the previous Regional Growth Strategy was adopted in 2000 while considering future sustainability for the region. As required by the Local Government Act, the bylaw has been accepted by all member municipalities and adjacent regional districts.

Recycling depot and transfer station Contract The Regional Board has approved a one year contract for recycling depot and transfer station services with OK Environmental Waste Systems. Over the next year, staff will monitor impacts related to the recently expanded provinciallyregulated recycling program operated by Multi-Materials BC. In addition, as the company is the current contractor, it provides minimal disruption in service and a saving of approximately $200,000 for the duration of the contract.

Community Works Fund agreement The Regional Board has approved entering into a ten year Community Works Fund Agreement with the Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM), which administers the Federal Gas Tax funding program with the Canada and BC governments. Under the new agreement, the Regional District of Central Okanagan is eligible for biannual payments of $320,834.62 for 2014 and 2015.

2020 labour Market outlook The Regional Board has received a report from the Central Okanagan Economic Development Commission on the ‘2020 Labour Market Outlook’.

Ensign said incentives could be offered to a developer such as higher density, reduced development cost charges and tax breaks for up to five years to help bring down the cost of the new hall.

While it has not been

confirmed, Ensign said he has learned the district is considering using the alternative approval process for an $8.9-million building.

The AAP puts the onus on the public to oppose a spending plan by a municipality rather than the municipality putting the issue to a vote.

Residents have 30 days to collect the signatures of 10 per cent of eligible voters in order to

make a council reconsider their proposal under the AAP rules, as a result few proposals using the alternative approval process are reconsidered.

Ensign added that putting the building between the couplet could put more pressure on the province to do something about the road that splits downtown Westbank in two. awaters @kelownacapnews.com

Teachers, gov’t negotiate like little children

To the editor: I am writing to convey my concern about the public education system and the need to resolve the current labour dispute by this government putting adequate resources into our young people.

The government spin is not covering the facts. B.C. has one of the lowest funded education systems in Canada yet one of the highest poverty rates. Do you think this could be a correlation?

Government continuously says it has no money but it continues to spend large sums, just choosing not to put it back into public education. Just the amount spent on courts to fight a battle in which the courts already twice have decided against the government would go a long way towards improving public education. As well it would free up time in an already overcrowded legal system.

This whole process, I think, is setting such a poor example for our children. It’s like kids who had a dispute and one sibling called the

Rutland is more than a neurotic middle child

W

hat’s the deal with Rutland?

Like a neurotic middle child, it’s perpetually trying to assert its value. Case in point, this week’s launch of a new website celebrating the neighbourhood’s proud past and present.

Among other things, OurRutland.com, will contain stories about the history of the community, which is named for John Hope Rutland, an Australian who lived in the area in the late 1800s.

According to Tony Peyton, part of The Rutland Unified Stakeholders Team, sharing this information is part of a plan to rejig the way people view the area. “The word ‘Rutland’ needs to be spoken with honour and respect,” he told city councillors Monday.

Another member of TRUST, Todd Sanderson echoed that sentiment.

“People unfairly speak disparagingly of Rutland.

The good people of Rutland have been left to take Kathy it on the chin.”

I can’t help but wonMichaels der, who cares? I, for one, like Rutland just the way it is, regardless of the commentary about its seediness. It has an enjoyable mix of residential, agricultural, park and commercial space.

One of my Top 5 Kelowna restaurants is there. Seriously great dolmathes. Almost as good as my yaiya’s.

Some of the stories I’ve written about Rutlanders have been the kind that reaffirm my belief that the human race is not bee-lining for self-inflicted catastrophe. Top of mind was a love-

KATHARTIC

ly grandmother who had a fondness for so-called graffiti. She went out every day collecting signatures to preserve “the art” in the community park.

So both the food, the people and the place seem good, which is a recipe for making this community news reporter’s heart grow three times—like a post epiphany Grinch, not someone suffering a fatal condition.

But that’s not even what matters.

Presumably, thousands of other Kelowna residents like Rutland, too. After all, one third of the city’s population live there. They spend money there, they recreate there and they work there.

That’s what’s important, isn’t it?

Look at Surrey. Now that’s a city with a bad reputation—oh the jokes I could tell about Surrey girls. The vast majority of my childhood friends could also share some bon mots on the topic, but they won’t. They either moved

there when they had their own families, or they know someone who did.

That’s right, Surrey was an affordable alternative to more expensive suburbs and relatively easy to drive to various workplaces.

My favourite past Surrey basher has a delightful little heritage home that she shares with her perfect little nuclear family. And she, along with the rest making Surrey one of the fastest growing cities in Canada, have gone a long way to make old stereotypes go flat.

So, while I am sure that teaching the community more about Rutland’s history can’t hurt anyone, I can’t help but think it’s also an exercise in futility.

What matters has nothing to do with the snide remarks and has everything to do with the actual people who, like I said, are pretty solid.

Nothing at all like neurotic middle children.

Government traffic stats get heated kickback It’s not the drivers it’s the design at fault To the editor: Re: Kelowna Drivers Most Accident-Prone In Southern Interior, June 24 Capital News.

I would suggest that the Ministry of Transportation take a much closer look at the statistics of the accident ratio at Spall and Highway 97.

The ministry always tells us that it is driver inattention that is the root cause of this high incident intersection.

I believe that this intersection is poorly designed and engineered.

The least that should happen is that a dedicated

turning light off of Highway 97 on to Spall should be installed. Far too many motorists are trying to ‘beat’ the light as well as turning on an yellow light to get through the intersection.

I think it is time for the ministry to ask more questions why this intersection continues to have the highest accident reports in our valley.

The human cost and dollars wasted to ICBC demands a more thorough look at this serious situation.

Dennis Semeniuk, Kelowna

To the editor: You have to wonder if the high volume of accidents on Harvey Avenue intersections might be in part related to the HOV lanes.

Major capital investments made this a sixlane street, which should contribute to relatively smooth flow of traffic.

However, reducing the majority of traffic to travel in two lanes seems to add to confusion and congestion, in my observation.

HOV lanes seem effective on highways in locations with clear employment destinations, but seem of doubtful benefit on Harvey Avenue. If the goal is to increase car-pooling, would it not make sense to limit these

restrictions to the commuting hours, as the rest of North America normally does? Could it be that the additional idling

due to congestion is adding to carbon emissions, not reducing them?

Dennis Ekvall, Kelowna

Seniors group puts activity out of range

To the editor: The Parkinson senior society, at its AGM June 13, raised the annual dues from $10 to $15—a 50 per cent increase. They did not stop there; they raised user fees 100 per cent.

A lot of these seniors are on fixed incomes and now they will not be able to enjoy as much their activity.

I was disheartened, disgruntled and disgusted.

Because they have $125,000 in the bank. Are these centres not non-profit, if not they should be. Stick it to the seniors again.

Peter Clinkard, Kelowna

What we say ‘yes’ to when we say ‘no’ To the editor: In replying to my letter about the Enbridge decision (Pipeline Decision

by Feds Wrong Headed, June 20 Capital News), Mr. Mellis has worked overtime portraying his side as beleaguered (World is Beating a Path to Our Shores for Oil, June 24 Capital News).

The pro-pipeline side, which he thinks is the majority of Canadians, is not allowed on the nightly newscasts, he says. …

As for there being a bias in newscasts against the development and export of Canada’s oil resources, it’s the first I’ve heard of it. I don’t get anywhere in trying to research this quaint idea.

In the battle for public

opinion, I would suggest Mr. Mellis check the airwaves again. The federal government and corporate Canada have spared no effort or expense in promoting oil and gas. …

Mr. Mellis has also worked to portray me as a conspiracy theorist, and protesters in general as “climate change alarmists” shadily funded by someone. Have I got news for Mr. Mellis. Here in Kelowna, we bleach second-hand bedsheets to turn into banners, and rely on social media to get the word out. …

It’s therefore important to document what we say ‘yes’ to when we say ‘no’ to the tar sands, pipelines and tankers.

We say ‘yes’ to the

coastal fisheries and B.C.’s tourism industry, which will be wiped out with the first marine spill of diluted bitumen.

We say ‘yes’ to aboriginal land title, and the constitutional right of aboriginal peoples to be consulted about development on their lands. We say ‘yes’ to a strong legal framework to protect the environment and deal with climate change, and ‘yes’ to the rights of our children and grandchildren to have a planet fit for habitation.

We say ‘yes’ to science, and ‘yes’ to all the communities along the proposed pipeline routes, and ‘yes’ to democratic decision-making instead of the farce that was con-

ducted by the Enbridge Joint Review Panel and Stephen Harper’s cabinet.

The number of jobs created for every million dollars invested in oil and gas is two. The number created for every million dollars invested in clean energy is 15. We therefore say ‘yes’ to a green economy—a healthy, diversified economy that’s life-enhancing.

Solar energy is 75 per cent cheaper than just six years ago, and if we met the most ambitious goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions the IPCC considered in their last report, we’d see a reduction in economic growth of a puny 0.06 per cent per year. We therefore say ‘yes’ to investment in

clean, renewable energy.

Lastly, we will say ‘yes’ to politicians, should any appear, who say ‘no’ to the Calgary cartel and their pots of election gold.

Free of charge, we will shower them with votes if they represent us, our children, and grandchildren, and if they support B.C.’s coastal industries, aboriginal rights, environmental protection, scientific consensus, climate change mitigation, and actual job creation rather than the empty promises of economic recovery Stephen Harper delivers year in year out. …

Get down to work and negotiate like adults Negotiate from A10 other out. The child then went to mom for validation of his opinion. When she said no, he went to dad and got the same answer.

Instead of facing up and taking some responsibility the child is now waiting for gramma and grampa to come from overseas to provide validation.

Is this what the government wants to be teaching our future generations?

As a taxpayer I sure don’t.

Money could also be redirected into the public education system by decreasing the number of post secondary seats for teacher education, at least

until the surplus of teachers lessens. B.C. spends huge dollars on educating teachers but few can get jobs at home so other provinces reap the benefits. Many teachers leave the profession early in their careers even if they have managed to teach in B.C. Perhaps spending on better learning and working conditions would help with the attrition. Worth a try, don’t you think?

Furthermore, money could be redirected from funding private education into the public education system. I agree people have a choice in a democracy to send their kids where they want for schooling. It is not up to

us as taxpayers to fund this, though, unless there are enough resources to fund the public education system too—that should be our first responsibility.

I could go on but so could the government in looking for ways to properly fund public education. Our children are finished with school but our grandchildren are only approaching this privilege. Please do all you can to ensure that experience is what all children deserve. Our future generations are worth it.

Negotiating is two sides coming together to ‘bargain hard’ with give and take on both sides.

This includes agreeing to mediation facilitated

by a respected and proven mediator, not one side publicly saying that their offer is “as good as it’s go-

ing to get.”

Get to fireworks safely The Westside Daze fireworks are always a hugely popular event with crowds gathering on the shores of Gellalty Bay to take in the Saturday night display.

This year, with the emergency closure of Gellatly Road leading to the waterfront, the District of West Kelowna is reminding motorists and pedestrians that the road is closed and alternate routes need to be taken for the June 28 fireworks beginning at 10:15 p.m.

To ensure that pedestrians do not travel through the emergency zone on Gellatly Road, the district will have flaggers on site to direct pedestrians toward safe routes to travel.

No pedestrians will be allowed through the construction area.

Pedestrians are encouraged to use other routes to access Gellatly Bay including the Westbank to Waterfront trail connection. Vehicles can be parked at

Johnson Bentley Memorial Aquatic Centre or the Save On Foods shopping complex and pedestrians can walk down to the bay for the fireworks.

The trail travels from the southern end of Old Okanagan Highway (adjacent to JBMAC) along a gravel pathway to Cindy Road which connects to Harding Road. Stairs connect Harding and Angus Roads.

Once on Angus Road, pedestrians can either turn right to go Willow Beach or turn left to go to Rotary Beach. The walk takes approximately 15 minutes.

The district anticipates that the Gellatly Road Detour route, along Witt and Carrall Roads, will be congested and encourages motorists to take alternate routes to Gellatly Bay including Boucherie Road from the northeast or from the southwest via Glenrosa overpass, both routes are accessed via Highway 97.

THE NEW Northern Cherries Inc. packing plant on Glenmore Road, less than a kilometre from the dump, marks the expansion of the industry locally, following the signing of Canada’s new agriculture trade agreement with China.

Temporary worker changes criticized It is hard to imagine a more restrictive and costly set of changes to thousands of Canadian businesses, says the president of the Kelowna Chamber of Commerce.

Curtis Darmohray notes the federal government even calls the first group of changes “limiting access to the program.”

He said the changes mean that no region outside the Lower Mainland will be eligible to apply for low-wage temporary foreign workers unless the region’s unemployment

rate drops to six per cent or less.

“We will continue to work with members to understand the implications of these changes to our member businesses,” said Darmohray in a posting to the chamber website Friday.

“In this vein we would encourage Chamber members to email us. Tell us about the implications these changes will have on your business.

He said the Chamber believes government must review these changes and be open to making amendments to the program if negative impacts are experienced.

In 2013, B.C. had 5,227 low wage entries.

Under the proposed caps this number will reduce by 1,217 in year one, 1,819 by year two and 2,362 by year three.

NEWS SETTING SAIL…

The Central Okanagan Sailing Association will host two unique major sailing events this weekend—the Women’s Hobie 18 and the Hobie 16 Trapseat North American Championships. The Hobie 16 Trapseat is an adapted catamaran supporting an able-bodied crew and a disabled skipper. At least three Paralympians and one Pan American champion will participate on these boats. The Women’s Hobie 18 championship was created to encourage the participation of more women skippers. The Hobie 18 is one of the world’s fastest high performance sailboats. The competition will take place between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. beginning today, just off the COSA dock at 4220 Hobson Rd. in Kelowna. Donations to support this event were provided by Odlum Brown, the province, the city and the North American Hobie Cat Association.

SHAKESPEARE

With a view to creating a summer home for Shakespeare, Okanagan Villa Estate Winery and Shakespeare Kelowna have announced the 2014 Season of Shakespeare at The Villa.

Featured this summer will be Shakespeare’s romantic comedy, “Much

Ado About Nothing,” July 16 to 20 and July 23 to 27 at the winery’s open-air stage.

This will mark the third season of Shakespeare at The Villa, a collaborative initiative driven

by Shakespeare Kelowna’s director Stephen Jefferys and Okanagan Villa winery proprietors Wyn and Marion Lewis.

“Bringing Shakespeare to life at The Villa is a special experience for everyone involved, both the actors and audience alike,” said Jefferys.

“Wyn and Marion are the consummate hosts and the old world, Mediterranean architecture of The Villa, set against a backdrop of lush gardens and vineyards is the ultimate setting for outdoor theatre.

“We’re excited to perform ‘Much Ado About Nothing,’ a fun romantic comedy which appeals to audiences of all ages.”

“Okanagan Villa is so much more than an estate winery,” added Wyn Lewis.

“The Villa is a beautiful place that we are very fortunate to call home and we delight in sharing this and our very vibrant wines, with those who visit.

“Marion and I love the arts and have since our university days at Cambridge. Art, music and wine are very close to our hearts and this resonates in the entire experience at The Villa and The Vibrant Vine.

Being active is recommended as a way to both prevent and treat many kinds of chronic diseases

from depression to diabetes to cancer.

Health starts in our homes and our neighbourhoods. Our experiences when we are young and the lifestyle choices and habits we make as adults help keep us healthy.

Access to greenspaces and recreational facilities in our neighbourhoods can make all the difference. A playground at the end of the block can allow a young family to get outside together in the evening and a flat trail with benches can help keep a senior active many months of the year.

A recent report from the Canadian Parks Council (Connecting Canadians with Nature: An Investment in the Well-Being of our Citizens) reveals that one in four Canadians are currently obese and the rates are climbing.

Additionally, more than one million Canadians are at risk for serious long-term health problems due to vitamin D deficiency.

A nature prescription could make a big impact here. The report also states, “Evidence is also mounting that proximity to natural environments is the best predictor of people’s physical activity, more so than proximity to community centres or indoor gyms.”

Infrastructure for parks and recreation can be as simple as a wellplaced dock or as comprehensive as a large beach area. We often have local governments and community groups to thank for amenities that make the outdoors inviting and accessible.

In my town, I enjoy a network of well-maintained mountain bike trails that stretch for hundreds of kilometers.

Anyone can use them, from hikers to bikers, and they are completely free.

The municipality donates money to our trail alliance every year and individuals can also donate if they wish. Providing parks and greenspaces are not only ways to beautify communities and make life more pleasant; these spaces also play a central role in our health and well-being.

Pro tennis showcase at Parkinson courts Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

A nationally-competitive seniors player and a teaching professional, Joachim Nierfeld knows high quality tennis when he sees it.

The organizer of the 2014 Kelowna ITF Futures Tennis Tournament assures that’s what exactly fans will be treated to over the next eight days at the Parkinson Recreation Centre courts.

“A handful of these players that people will see are very close to breaking through,” said Nierfeld. “There is not a much of a difference between this tennis and what you see at the top level.

Players who are coming here are capable of beating players in the top 100 in the world, and have done it in the past.”

A key tournament for pro ranking points, the week-long event attracts men’s singles players ranging from No. 200 to 1,500 in the world rankings, elite NCAA Div. 1 collegiate players, as well as top Canadian men and

junior competitors.

The ultimate goal for all the players is making a full-time jump up to the ATP circuit.

Among the competitors will be North Vancouver’s Philip Bester, who has played in eight ATP events during his career.

The defending Kelowna Futures champ, Bester, 25, is returning from an injury and is looking to eventually surpass his previous best world ranking of No. 229. “(Bester) called this event part of his road to Wimbledon, he wants to really have a good year to help him get back on the ATP for next year,” Nierfeld said.

Also competing will be Vancouver’s Filip Peliwo, who was ranked No. 1 in the world among junior players two years ago.

A successfully-run Kelowna event since 2012, the Futures has helped to induce the creation other such tournaments across Western Canada—and in turn to enhance the development of young Canadian athletes.

“It’s great for our young B.C. and Canadian up-and-coming players,” said Nierfeld. “We have new Futures events in Richmond and Vancouver, we also have Kelowna, Calgary, Saskatoon and Winnipeg. So they can now play six of these tournaments in a row where, in the past, they would have to go to the U.S. or fly to Europe. It’s great for tennis here.”

This is the third and final year of Nierfeld’s agreement with Tennis Canada to stage the event, but he has been asked to consider hosting a Challenger event next year, the next step up the ladder towards the ATP. However, at this time, Nierfeld said Kelowna doesn’t have adequate-sized facilities to host the event.

Play at the $15,000 Kelowna Futures begins this Saturday at 10 a.m. with the qualifying round.

The final draw will feature 32 players.

The championship final is set for 1 p.m. Sunday, July 6 at the Parkinson Courts.

The local girls’ fastball squad will be among 21 teams competing in the U16 B division from July 11 to 14 in one of the world’s largest tournaments of its kind.

It should be a great experience for our team.”

Coached by Doug Fisher, the Heat will be joined in their category by other teams from B.C., as well as from Washington and Utah.

In addition to playing some high calibre ball, the tKelowna girls will have a chance to watch best women’s players in the tworld, including the national teams from Canada, the USA, Japan and Mexnico. n The event also draws thundreds of scouts from across North Amernica who are looking for eyoung prospects. a “There’s a group of egirls who would ultimgately love to get scholar-ships, and with coaches there from all across the lnation, they’re going to get some good exposure,” said Fedorak. “It will be a good environment for the girls to see how they han-

Jays host Baseball Blast

The Kelowna Jays host the 11th annual Canada Day Baseball Blast this weekend, starting Friday night at Elk Stadium as the long-running event will continue despite what is its smallest field in the 10 year history of the money baseball tournament.

While past years saw the Blast include up to 16 teams, this year’s tournament is a scaled down event with just four teams, including the Kelowna Jays, Okanagan Athletics, Calgary Diamondbacks and Prince George Axeman.

“This year’s event has a different look than

in past years where there were 12 to 16 teams,” said organizer Bill Bayen. “Tournament competition and and some teams having financial problems has produced a smaller but very competitive and fun event. The 2014 teams will all play five games over the weekend and the two finalists will play six.”

The Jays will again play host however the Okanagan Athletics could be considered co-hosts, as Elk Stadium and Kelowna is also their home field. The visiting Prince George Axemen roster is comprised of some very good players, some of whom will be a suprise

for the Kelowna fans. The Calgary team has many players who have been to The Blast several times before and should be very competitive.

Bayne said despite the small field, the tournament will feature plenty of talent and great development for the teams.

“Teams and players need to play lots of games in order to get better and the teams assembled this year are looking forward to just that,” said Bayne.

“The majority of players in this event are either current or past college players and there are some very top caliber players on these teams.”

The second half was all Kelowna as Kaley Krivoshein scored, Large

KU Crushers 5, Kamloops Blaze 2 Despite their short bench, the KU squad dominated the play scoring five straight goals against Kamloops. Jessye Large, Kaley Krivoshein, Alison McDuff and a trio from Melia Thompson sealed the deal.

KU Krushers 1, Kamloops Blue 2 he game got off to a good start with Julia Hunter scoring Kelowna’s first goal three minutes into the game. Kamloops owned the second half with two goals, one at the 15 minute mark followed by another 22 minutes into to the second half.

This time, however, it was all Kelowna with Abigail Taneda registering a natural hat trick in a 3-0 victory.

KU Burn 6, Kamloops White 0 Abigail Taneda netted two more, along with Lauren Schmidt (2), Jaidyn McGrath, and Kyra Donick. As always, due credit must be given to the Burn’s amazing defense and goal keeping. They conceded only 12 goals in 30 games all season. Burn enters this weekend’s Canada day tourney on a high note, having not lost a game since Easter.

Help Prevent Heart Attacks with Vitamin C and Lysine Powder W. Gifford-Jones, MD

W

hy is heart attack the number one killer in this country? Ninety-nine percent of doctors say it’s due to atherosclerosis (hardening of arteries) and that cholesterol lowering drugs are the primary way to treat it. But I suggest cardiologists have closed minds and are ignoring facts that could save thousands of North Americans from coronary attack.

Vitamin C is required to manufacture healthy collagen, the glue that holds coronary cells together, just like mortar is needed for bricks. Lysine, like steel rods in cement, makes collagen stronger. Two-time Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Linus Pauling reported twenty-five years ago it takes a mere 10 milligrams to prevent scurvy, but several thousand to prevent heart attack.

Williams Stehbens, Professor of Anatomy at Wellington University in New Zealand, proved Pauling was right. Stebhens’ research showed that coronary arteries closest to the heart are under the greatest pressure. This causes collagen to fracture resulting in the formation of a blood clot and death.

I also believed the research of Pauling and Stehbens irrefutable. Now, the work of Dr. Bush has convinced me my decision was prudent.

But to take large doses of vitamin C and lysine requires swallowing many pills daily. It’s a tall order for those who dislike swallowing one pill. So for several years I’ve been trying to find a company that would manufacture a combination of vitamin C and lysine powder. Now Medi-C Plus™ is available at health food stores and specialty pharmacies.

The dosage for the Medi-C Plus combination is one flat scoop mixed with water or juice with breakfast and the evening meal. Those at greater risk should take one flat scoop three times a day.

This column does not recommend that those taking CLDs should stop them. That is a decision that can only be made by patients and doctors.

As for me – I bet my life on vitamin C and lysine!

I turned 90 this year.

Dr. Sydney Bush, an English researcher, has now proven that vitamin C can reverse atherosclerosis. Bush took retinal photographs, then started his patients on high doses of vitamin C and lysine. One year later additional pictures showed atherosclerosis had regressed in retinal arteries.

Sixteen years ago following my own coronary attack, cardiologists claimed it was sheer madness for me to refuse cholesterol-lowering drugs. Instead, I decided to take high doses of vitamin C plus lysine with breakfast and the evening meal.

I knew that Dr. Graveline, a physician and NASA astronaut, had twice developed transient global amnesia from taking cholesterol lowering drugs (CLD’s). I was also aware that patients have died from CLDs. Others have developed kidney, liver and muscle complications.

▼ B.C. MASTERS MEET

Olga Kotelko to be honoured at Apple Bowl Inspirational nonagenarian will be honoured at track meet The B.C. Master’s Track and Field Championship this weekend in Kelowma is shaping up as one to remember.

With nearly 200 competitors expected to attend, the championship meet looks primed to play host to record-setting performances as athletes take to the Apple Bowl in events ranging from javelin to hurdles, long jump to race walking.

Despite the general buzz surrounding the meet however, a damper was placed on the spirits of organizers and athletes alike this week as the master’s track community says goodbye to one of the sports all time greats.

Olga Kotelko, holder of 34 world records, passed away abruptly this Tuesday of a brain hemorrhage. She was 95.

Taking up the sport in her 70s, the West Vancouver resident has been a staple on the national and international seniors track scene since. With multiple world championship appearances and a slue of provincial, Canadian, and international titles to her name, the throwing and jumps specialist had shown little signs of slowing down in her later years. Competing this past may in Kamloops, Olga added six world records and an additional two Canadian bests to her list of accomplishments and looked set for another great season of competition.

A statement from the host Okanagan Athletics Club reads: “Olga was a true inspiration to so many in the sport of track and

field. Her competitiveness and resiliency embodies the values that the Okanagan Athletics club wishes to imprint on all of its members, both young and old, and the running of this year’s Jack Brow and corresponding masters championship this weekend will be done so with the memory of this incredible individual very much at the forefront.”

Run in congruence with the OAC’s annual Jack Brow Memorial meet, the championships will kick off this Friday at the Apple Bowl with the master’s throws pentathlon.

THE UBC Okanagan Heat volleyball squads open their new Canada West seasons on Oct. 10 in Edmonton.

ALEX HILL/CONTRIBUTED

Heat volleyball schedules unveiled As UBC Okanagan volleyball approaches its fourth round of CIS competition, both the men’s and women’s squads from Kelowna have high hopes for what will be a long Canada West season.

With the addition of Edmonton’s MacEwan University the 2014-15 design features 24 conference games, and two more weekends of play than in previous seasons - season starts Oct. 10 for the Okanagan volleyballers.

Coming off a Canada West fourth place finish,

the Heat women are earning a winning reputation that they are hungry to build upon. Meanwhile, the men continue to work diligently and the young guns have their eyes locked on another playoff push. With few departures on both sides, and the addition of a number of talented recruits, both Greg Poitras’ men’s team and Steve Manuel’s women’s crew are eager to make a splash in Canada’s top tier.

In 2010-11 seven of the 10 teams in Canada West made the playoffs,

this season the top seven squads still qualify for the post season yet there are now 13 teams fighting for those top seven spots.

The Heat women will attempt to qualify for a third straight year, and the men’s squad look to return to late February play for the first time in three years. This season of Canada West volleyball has UBC Okanagan eagerly preparing for another season of battle.

The Heat will open the year in Edmonton against the Alberta Pandas and Golden Bears on Fri-

Richdale finishes 4th at Canadian Tour event in Niagara Falls A solid final round of 5-under par 67 pushed Samantha Richdale to a fourth-place finish at the latest stop on the Canadian Women’s Golf Tour.

The 30-year-old from Kelowna posted a tworound total of 2-under 142 at the Battlefield Course in Niagara Falls this week to finish seven shots back of winner and teenage sen-

sation, Brooke Henderson of Smith Falls, ON. Richdale, who was coming off a 25th-place showing just three days earlier on the Symetra Tour, opened with a 75 on Tuesday, then reeled four birdies and an eagle en route to a closing 67 on Wednesday.

Kelowna’s Kyla Inaba tied for 69th.

For her efforts, Richdale picked to $6,996, pushing over the $15,000 mark in two Canadian Tour events this season.

This spring, she tied for second at the first event of the season in Parksville.

Richdale is second only to Henderson in the points race for the Jocelyn Bourassa player of the

year award, given annually to the to player on the Canadian Women’s Tour.

Richdale won the honour in 2013.

The last of three events on the Canadian tour is the PGA Women’s Championship of Canada, July 29 to 31 in Komoka, ON.

GOLF CANADA/ BERNARD BRAULT

KELOWNA’S Samantha Richdale was fourth at a Canadian women’s golf tour event in Niagara Falls.

The Kelowna Howlers Under-16 girls softball team will be taking part in the provincial championships early in July and is looking for the public’s support to help offset some of the costs of the event.

The Howlers earned the right to play in the Softball BC U16 Girls Provincials from July 3 to 6 in Port Alberni after a season of dedication and determination on the diamond.

Playing under the Kelowna Minor Fastball banner, the Howlers have relied on its own fundraising efforts to take part in several tournaments this season. But four days at provincials will be another pricey venture as the team is expecting a bill of close to $12,000 to attend the event.

“Kelowna Minor Fastball is 100 per cent volunteer based and we have no major sponsors,” said assistant coach Keith Gotte. “This year due to an aging park (High Noon) most of the funds have been placed into upkeep of the park and there are no funds available to help our team head to

the provincials. We have been fundraising all season to support our girls with tournaments but heading to provincials with be quite costly for all families.”

Gotte says the $12,000 bill to travel to Port Alberni includes accommodations, registration fees,

ferry costs, travel and food, “Our team will represent Kelowna in a very positive way,” said Gotte.

“No donation is too small.

A tax receipt is available upon request.”

Charity offers free bikes to kids Jim Couper CONTRIBUTOR

The Kelowna chapter of Bicycles for Humanity is giving away children’s bikes for the second time this year.

At least 100 kids’ bikes will be available Saturday, July 5, between 8 a.m. and noon.

Among the giveaways at St. Charles Garnier Church, 3645 Benvoulin Rd., are tricycles, bikes with training wheels, scooters and regular two-wheelers suitable for preteens. A donations is requested but not required.

“I can’t believe how fast they come in,” said Keith Germaine who co-ordinates bike shipments to Africa. “We gave away a hundred in April and already we have a ton more. We never ask for kids’ bikes since we can’t ship them.”

Germaine explained

CONTRIBUTED

HUNDREDS of bikes were given away in previous years by the Kelowna chapter of the Bicycles for Humanity. that the Kelowna group sends two containers with close to 1,000 donated adult bikes to the West African country of Ghana each year.

Since bikes go to nurses, farmers, health care workers and teachers, a bike with training wheels,

for example, in the container, would deprive a farmer of a means of taking produce to market more quickly than on foot.

Along with being dropped off at the church, children’s bikes are also rescued from landfill sites because they are just too

good to be wasted.

Representatives of Bicycles for Humanity will be on hand at St. Charles Garnier Church on July 5 to explain how the charity works, assist with bike adjustments , do minor repairs and accept donations.

Provincial grants allotted to local groups

Thirteen local community organizations received more than $400,000 in gaming grants as part of the province’s Community Gaming Grant Program.

“From lawn bowling to the symphony, each of these organizations make life better, richer, and more fun in the Central Okanagan,” said Premier Christy Clark, MLA for Westside-Kelowna.

The grants were awarded to the following Kelowna area community organizations:

Simple solutions to help A overcome bladder issues

P

elvic health problems don’t get a lot of press.

If you have a bladder issue, for example a bit of leakage when you cough or sneeze; if you know where every bathroom is when you go out shopping, you have a problem.

Chances are, you’ve never even spoken to your doctor about it.

Urinary incontinence, the involuntary loss of urine, is quite prevalent.

It’s estimated that 10 to 44 per cent of women experience it to some degree. From 50 to 70 per cent of urinary incontinence is unreported.

Stress incontinence can also affect men after a prostatectomy. Incontinence is not a normal part of the aging process.

There are two main types of bladder incontinence: Stress incontinence is like a leaky faucet. The bladder leaks with effort or exertion (like a cough or a sneeze). This may be due to weakened pelvic floor muscles, an ineffective sphincter muscle along the urethra, relaxed ligament/fascial support of the pelvic organs, and/ or hormonal changes.

It is a common symptom during and after menopause.

Urge incontinence is experienced with a strong urge to void, which is very hard to suppress.

The bladder is like an overactive pump.

Strong contractions of the smooth muscle in the bladder walls cause urine to leak out.

Triggers can be the sound of water running, or putting the key in the door when we’ve been out for a long walk.

Strong urge and increased frequency of urination can occur without leakage. This is sometimes known as overactive bladder syndrome.

What can be done about stress induced incontinence?

There are several types of treatment available.

Conservative treatment involves pelvic floor muscle retraining, lifestyle changes, optimizing

Brenda Walsh fluid intake.

Biofeedback can be a useful tool in the training process.

Sensors near the pelvic floor muscles measure the strength of a voluntary contraction and provide feedback. It can be a valuable learning tool.

Using the upper abdominal muscles excessively can add to the problem.

There is a definite link between using the deepest layer of abdominals for proper support of the pelvic organs, and getting a stronger contraction of the pelvic floor muscles.

Specially trained physiotherapists can assess these bladder disorders, teach people with incontinence how to correctly perform specific exercises, advise how to

retrain the bladder to improve continence control.

Medical interventions may be needed for more severe problems.

During menopause, low estrogen levels can contribute to the problem.

Surgery is also an option for some women.

Pelvic floor training is highly beneficial whether surgery is needed or not.

Many people don’t realize there is help out there for their issues, and spend large amounts of money on pads and incontinence products, or abstain from social events for fear of embarrassment.

With a few months of regular adherence to an exercise routine and lifestyle changes, moderate degrees of incontinence can be cured.

The first step is booking an appointment with a trained professional.

Brenda Walsh is a new physiotherapist in Kelowna with 18 years experience in pelvic floor rehabilitation.

llergy patients are increasingly looking for alternatives to drugs (anti-histamines, intranasal steroids, etc).

Several naturopathic therapies exist with good scientific evidence for the treatment and relief of seasonal allergies.

A basic understanding of allergies contends that there is a cytokine imbalance in the immune system.

An allergy is an abnormal overreaction to a specific environmental antigen called an allergen.

This leads to overactive B cells that in turn produce excess immunoglobulin E (IgE). IgE then triggers the allergic symptoms by activating mast cells that produce histamine.

Common symptoms include runny nose, sinus congestion, headache, fatigue and itchy eyes.

Quercetin is a bioflavonoid and anti-oxidant widely used in the treatment of allergies.

Quercetin stabilizes mast cells and inhibits the release of histamine, thereby reducing the general inflammatory process.

Due to its unique bioavailability, quercetin is

ize the immune system towards excessive Th2 cells—resulting in allergic symptoms.

A simple blood test can identify your IgG and IgE response to 96 common foods.

An IgE RAST blood test is also available for seasonal allergies if you are unsure of what exact allergen you have but would like to know (cat, dog, trees, grass, weeds, ragweed, dust, mold).

One might also consider a heavy metal challenge to see what heavy metal levels exist in the body.

Individuals who suffer from chronic seasonal allergies can benefit from an IV infusion known as the Myers’ cocktail.

This is a five to 10 minute in-office IV push with a cocktail of high dose vitamin C, magnesium, B vitamins, trace minerals and more.

It’s important to investigate the root cause for seasonal allergies.

Often, underlying food sensitivities or heavy metal toxicities are to blame.

M

uch like the current weather, this week’s column is another typical HodgePodge with a bit of everything.

In our always interesting world of sports, particularly hockey (B.C.’s second favourite and most boggling sport next to provincial government elections), the Vancouver Canucks have taken yet another step sideways.

This week the enigmatic NHL franchise finally named a new replacement coach to fill in the punching bag position left open by the firing of John Tortorella.

Seems the wise (or at least wealthy) owners of the Canucks figure that Willie Desjardins can get the job done. Who? While Willie Desjardins is hardly an NHL household name, Willie along with a Gazillion and a half hockey fans hope he can change that soon.

HODGE PODGE

Charlie Hodge Desjardins holds a relatively impressive record in the hockey having coached at most levels including junior, international, university, and the American Hockey League.

This season he led the Texas Stars of the American League to the championship Calder Trophy.

It will be interesting to see how his calmer, gentler style of dealing with spoiled, elite athletes does versus the bombastic and ineffective style of Torts.

While he may not have a challenging time boasting a better win/loss record on the ice, certainly he will have a tougher time ticking off media and

players unless he suddenly learns to punch walls, chase other coaches down the hallways of the arena, and insult fans and players alike. Ah, so much to learn in a new job.

Oh well, at least new Canucks GM Jim Benning can now concentrate on trying to find a few good hockey players, trade away malcontent Ryan Kessler and prepare for another mediocre draft.

Up until the announcement of Desjardins’ hiring, the guess was that Vancouver was going to beg the New York Rangers to enter a time warp machine where we could reverse the past year, give the Rangers back Torts and keep former Canuck bench boss Alain Vigneault.

Since Coach V took the Rangers all the way to the Stanley Cup final this spring, the Canucks management now understand that he was not the problem in Lotus Land. *** Clearly Canadians have fully embraced soccer or ‘football’ as their favourite sport for the mo-

ment now that the hockey season is over.

Like much of the world, it seems many Canadians are currently absorbed by the World Cup activity going on in Brazil.

I admit to never being a huge soccer player or fan, though I have tremendous respect for the game and the athleticism needed to play the game.

I remember as the first sports reporter for the Capital News back in the mid-1970s when editor Patrick Denton insisted I start covering local soccer matches.

When I confessed I knew little about the game, he replied; “Well don’t stand around my office telling me that. Go find out about it.”

I took that bit of advice to heart and immediately sought some sort of soccer sage.

That was when I was pointed to local soccer guru Mike Condon.

When I met Mike, my first question was for him to quickly explain the idea behind the game.

He grinned and said, “The best definition of

Belated birthday wishes also go out to Canadian troubadour Keith ‘Papa’ Thom who turned (yikes) 60 last month. *** In the things I am not looking forward to seeing, city council gave fourth reading this week to the controversial high-rise proposal for the waterfront of downtown.

Alberta based Westcorp Developments will build a 24-storey hotel and conference centre at the foot of Queensway Avenue on the old Willow Inn site. Council gave unanimous support to the project during final reading Tuesday night.

In announcing the approved project, Mayor Walter Gray heaped praise on Calgary developer Phil Milroy saying Milroy had been “misunderstood” and “not treated well in the past” (by the previous council) and deserved a lot of credit for sticking with his plan.

Hmmm…I am not sure if “misunderstood” is the term I would use.

I fully understood what Milroy and crew wanted to do and along with four other city councillors also heard that the public had no interest in Milroy’s “supported” CD21 plan that the former council (including moi) defeated.

The public had elected me and others in that election to make sure the bottom block of Bernard Avenue was not turned into a wall of skyscrapers.

With the allowed height of 19 storeys ignored in favour of Milroy’s requested 24 storeys, I guess we misunderstood that “allowable maximum height” detail as well. The mayor predicts the new development will “set the bar for future development.”

Wow, I can hardly wait.

ON a Honda CRF250L, Mark Buche, followed by Ty van Hooydonk on a Kawasaki KLX250, followed by a Suzuki DR-Z400S piloted by Jun Villegas, the trio rides through Twenty Mule Team Canyon, located in the Furnace Creek area of Death Valley, a one-way 2.7 mile unpaved loop road, on April 18 of this year.

▼ US NATIONAL PARK

Zip through Death Valley on a motorcycle Charles Fleming CONTRIBUTOR

DEATH VALLEY NATIONAL PARK— Shaped by millenniums of wind and water, this vast geological museum, 3,000 square miles of wildly varied topography, rivals the wonders of the Grand Canyon.

Much of Death Valley has been made accessible to visitors. The painted desert splendours of Zabriskie Point and the breathtaking scenic overlook at Dante’s View are less than a one-minute walk from the parking lot.

But much of what’s most interesting about Death Valley is hidden from view and difficult to access.

Natural gas.

Good for outdoor living.

Entertain all year long with a natural gas barbecue. Add a patio heater or fire pit for cosy warmth and ambience. Transform your outdoor living space with natural gas.

The best way to see the best of it—the fastest and easiest way, without spending hours crawling down bumpy roads in a car or four-wheeldrive truck—is on a dual-sport motorcycle, one suited for both on- and off-road riding.

Two friends and I took three lightweight, mid-sized motorbikes—a Honda 250L, a Kawasaki KLX250 and a Suzuki DR-Z 400—de-

signed to be as comfortable at 60 mph on the highway as they are capable of navigating ruts, rocks and ditches on the rough back roads.

We were kitted out for off-road safety— full-coverage helmets and goggles, proper boots

TRAVEL

▼ RIDETHROUGH DEATH VALLEY

for a large vehicle to pass.

Like the road to the racetrack, this 20-mileplus run of dirt road could be done in a car— though only four-wheeldrive vehicles are recommended—but its rocky, rutted sections and sandy washes make for slow going. Cars and Jeeps take up to three hours to do this drive. On a dual-sport motorcycle, a leisurely sightseeing spin could take less than an hour, leaving more time to stop for photographs or a short hike around Leadfield.

Essential equipment includes hydration pack

Death Valley A29 and gloves, and clothing equipped with armoured pads for knees, shins and elbows—and were wearing hydration packs to fight thirst in the dry air and warm weather.

From a base camp in nearby Beatty, Nev.—less chic but far cheaper than Death Valley’s glamorous Furnace Creek Inn— we spent two days in April two-wheeling around the enormous park’s highlights.

We hit all the marquee locations, including those we could easily have seen from a car, stopping at Stovepipe Wells for lunch, Furnace Creek for gas and Scotty’s Castle for a cold drink. But the real wonders of the weekend were off the beaten, and paved, path.

Behind the massive volcanic cavity that is Ubehebe Crater begin 29 miles of unpaved road to Racetrack Valley. This

geologic mystery features a miles-wide expanse of pancake-flat clay so slick when it is wet or frozen that the stones on this desolate playa are pushed across it by seasonal winds. The result is a vast dry plain crisscrossed by the trails of rocks that appear to have raced there.

We passed many a Jeep and four-wheeler as they crept along the bad road. We skipped along on the bikes and did in 40 minutes a drive that might have taken some of them three hours.

It wasn’t without incident. One of our number, who might have been going a little too fast, got a little sideways and went head over heels off the motorcycle near Teakettle Junction—uninjured but amply demonstrating the wisdom of wearing offroad protective clothing.

The final highlight of the weekend was Titus Canyon. Beginning in Nevada and running

through the mountains that separate the old mining-era towns of Beatty and Rhyolite from Death Valley itself, this unpaved, 27-mile, one-way roadway crosses open desert, climbs a series of switchbacks to a crest of 5,700 feet, and then makes a snaking, sinuous descent through a sandstone canyon.

Along the way it cuts through red rock mountains, where the road is a slim strip of flat land paralleling a deep canyon.

At the roadside are abandoned homesteads and the ruins of the town Leadfield, where for one mad year in the 1920s prospectors came to make their fortunes after a promoter salted nearby mines with lead ore that promised riches.

Farther below, the road flattens into a dry, sandy wash, cutting through pink, purple and gold sandstone walls that are too narrow in places

IF YOU GO:

From Los Angeles, there are two routes to Death Valley, both scenic. For the eastern route, take Interstate 10 or 210 to Interstate 15 north to Baker, then California 127 to California 190 west into the park. For the western route, take California 14, then U.S. 395, then California 190.

Question of the Week Bob McHugh in his review of the Lincoln MKC reveals there is a new technology called “park out assist” which gets your vehicle out of the tight parking sport that the “park assist” shoehorned you into!

Is this kind of technology in danger of diminishing a driver’s control skills?

Stowe, Vermont – Despite the relatively early call time, a group of almost 100 Mazda Miata/MX-5 drivers/ passengers gathers for the morning’s meeting.

The weather is looking favourable even though the a.m. envelops the crowd with its chilliness. It’s not raining though. That’s a good sign.

Regardless of background, profession, or preference in exterior colour, few vehicles in the world bring people together as strongly as Mazda’s MX-5.

housekeeping rules, makes some jokes and engages in witty banter with a group of excited Miata enthusiasts.

Everyone is ready to hit the roads of Vermont in their tiny, drop top, two-doors.

Everything from first generations Miatas, to the latest and greatest rear-wheel drive roadsters line the gravel parking lot of our home base, also known as the Stowehof Inn. Stowe, VT’s claim to fame is as a ski destination.

Currently, its claim to fame is the 46 Mazdas that drove in from Ontario and are congregating for their annual tour.

Each May long weekend, a group of club members look forward to the event.

It’s been going for over 20 years and hasn’t disappointed. The crowd gets rowdier by the minute so go-time is just around the corner.

The meeting wraps up; we branch into our respective groups and fire up the engines.

As honorary members for the event, my co-pilot – aka my mother Zsuzsanna Straub – and I get behind the wheel of our MX-5.

Within moments, we’re topless. The car. Not us!

Seven vehicles comprise a group, including a leader and a sweeper. We’re comfortably nestled in the bosom of the pack.

Our job is to enjoy ourselves, as well as give the MX-5 a little bit of room to romp free.

It’s hard not to smile on the undulating roads of Vermont, which are lined with trees, houses, fields and topped off with a bovine scent!

Then there is what is called

“The Notch.” A mountain road where emaciated limbs of indigenous trees look like they’re reaching out and trying to touch the cars. Boulders are scattered and the path is paved around it. The intermittent obstacles would likely be the outcome of two Greek gods having a rock fight.

You would have to have superhuman strength to move them.

The sinuous and slender road is a hoot to drive through especially with no one in front of you. The occasional crackling on the CB radios frequently is overpowered by instructions from the leader.

Like a mother duck summoning her young, we followed in order. We stuck together and took in some breathtaking scenery of New England. Scenery aside, what was the most interesting to breathe in was the enthusiasm and energy of the Miata owners.

Liz Burns has “Miatatude” stickered across her windshield. Miata earrings dangle from her ears as she professes her love of her emerald beauty.

Another owner decided to turn his conventional doors into ones that open up not out.

At breakfast, lunch and dinner, they regale each other with stories of other events they’ve been on. Outbursts of laughter perk up the ears of bystanders; making them wish they were at that table reliving the memories.

The camaraderie of those young and young at heart is indisputable.

Regardless of background, profession, or preference in exterior colour, few vehicles in the world bring people together as strongly as Mazda’s MX-5.

Liz was one of the first members of the Trillium Miata Club. She expected to join a group of Miata owners and drive with them on weekends. Liz says she “didn’t expect to make friends for 25 years” but she did.

And as the Miata/MX-5 turns 25 this year, here’s to another quarter century of promote the best that life has to offer: the bond of mankind and machine, 167 horsepower at a time. www.mazda.ca alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

The van features the world’s first in-car vacuum system called the HondaVac. It comes complete with a replaceable filter, canister bag, nozzle accessories, and a hose capable of reaching the front seats.

Ian Harwood

I feel a family email coming on. My sister-in-law Cristina has an Odyssey van and has

been transporting a full size shop vac and leaf blower around for years. My two nieces make quite a mess, unlike my tidy offspring.

Just kidding.

But before we get into an interior clean-up, let’s cast an eye over the vehicle’s exterior looks.

It has a stylish hood that sweeps down towards the grille. The headlights are

angled up and back giving the profile a sculpted look.

Honda refers to the overall design as a lightning bolt.

Not only does it provide an exclusive appearance, but also adds increased visibility for third row passengers.

Very nice interior, everything laid out nicely. So many bells and whistles you almost would want to run through a checklist before driving. Eight-passenger seating with a total passenger volume of 4,887 litres, whatever, that means.

And all those passengers get thirsty so Honda put in 15 cup holders. The third row is a one-motion 60/40 split ‘Magic’ seat that can accommodate three passengers and still leave 1,087 litres of cargo volume – that’s room for a lot of slushies for later in the journey. The second row is a 3 mode seating with fold down center console. Driver and front passenger seats are captain’s chairs that are very comfortable. My tester included a leather wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, channel selector, cruise control, and handsfree telephone button.

The instrument panel is easier to read, thanks to a little tweaks by the engineers.

Satellite-linked Navigation screen with trilingual voice recognition, 3D map and FM traffic is also available that uses GPS technology and a 60GB hard drive based operating system that provides the driver with turn-by-turn voice guidance to their chosen destination. The screen also is used for the back-up camera that offers three different views, normal view, wide angle, and top down.

Both side sliding doors open automatically via the key fob or a switch on the dash. A 270-watt AM/FM/ CD audio system with MP3/ Windows Media audio playback and seven speakers including a subwoofer is standard, with a 650-watt and 12-speaker version also available.

The i-MID or intelligent Multi information Display has the ability to display your incoming text messages while in park and read them out too you while driving. I had one driving home late one night and it said “your dinner is in the garbage, have a nice day” must have been a glitch.

The available rear entertainment system features a huge 16.2-inch screen that includes two wireless headsets with personal

MARLIES BURIAN

January 14, 1943 - June 14, 2014 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our mother, Marlies, at Hospice House after a valiant battle with cancer. We would like to invite family, friends and co-workers to a celebration of her life on July 5, 2014 at 11am. It will be held at the Peachland United Church on 4th Street. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of her physicians, Geoff at the Peachland Pharmacy and Hanson’s Funeral Home for all of the care that mom received.

We miss you Mom.

SHEPHERD ~ DENIS A. With family at his side, Denis passed peacefully last week in White Rock. Denis was predeceased by his devoted wife Dorene and will be lovingly remembered by his family: Stan (brother), Chris (nephew), Mary Anne (niece), Avril (great niece) & husband Bruce, Aaron (great nephew) & family, Ryan (great nephew) all from Surrey, Maureen (niece) & husband from Vancouver, Elsie (sister-in-law), Tom (nephew), Carol (niece) & family from Regina.

Denis joined the RCAF in October 1943 and married Dorene in August 1946. During his career, Denis worked on or received training on 36 different types of aircraft and 6 types of helicopters. His postings included; Brandon Manitoba, Medicine Hat Alberta, St. Thomas Ontario, Davidson Sask., Yorkton Sask., Winnipeg Manitoba, Churchill Manitoba, Norman Wells NWT., Rivers Manitoba, Bagotville Que., Zweibrucken Germany, Toronto Ont., Sea Island BC., Edmonton AB., Calgary AB. and Montreal Que. During his time in the Canadian Forces, Denis rose to the rank of Flight Sgt. In 1963 Denis received his commission to Officer Rank as a Pilot Officer and rose to the rank of Major.

Denis’ final posting was as Commanding Officer of Number One Field Maintenance Squadron in Edmonton. When he retired Denis was considered the most knowledgeable helicopter maintenance officer in the Canadian Armed Forces. There are three letters of commendation on his files.

During his last year in the service, Denis spent his evenings designing a 2900 square foot home in Kelowna. Denis had a professional builder complete the upper floor and Denis and Dorene moved into it when Denis retired from the Canadian Air Force in 1975. Together Denis and Dorene enjoyed spectacular views from Black Mountain to Peachland and loved to call Kelowna their home.

Denis’ quick wit, leadership and character will be sadly missed by all those who knew him.
